Air saturated with water vapor is
haater than dry air of the same tem
jporature because water vapor is light

,a given quantity of water is dispensed

Place of Refuge
A real garden Is one where one
may euter and forget tiie whole
world, where troubles vanish with the
losing of the gate and where peace
reigns In every nook and cranny.—
Pithy Quotations from Public Addresses of
MELVIN A. TRAYLOR
President, First National Bank, Chicago
“It is time some leadership and some
party called our attention to the fact
there is no magic cure for the ills and
the evils of human folly. We trod the
primrose path of extravagance, of
thoughtless and ot almost criminal
neglect of every sound principle of
human conduct, from the. individual to
the government, and the individual
was aided, encouraged, and abetted on
that path by the government and those
responsible for its administration.”
* * *
“One of the biggest things was a
watered state of mind in which we all
thought we were richer than we were,
and were living beyond our means.”
* * *
"In my opinion, no great division of
human society has ever been lied to,
and lied about, as much in the same
period of time as has the American
farmer.”
* * *
“This then is my hope for our future
—that we may he rich without forget¬
ting to be righteous; that we may be
powerful without being offensively
proud; that we may be nationally
minded without being narrow-minded;
and, finally, that we may live in a world
of fact without surrendering our faith.”
* * *
“I would urge consideration of the
complete abolishment of so-called floor
trading, which, as I am informed, has
about it most of the characteristics of
plain crap shooting, and few, if any,
more redeeming features than that de¬
lightful Ethiopian pastime.”
* * *
“It is bad enough when the intelli¬
gent and wealthy speculate and lose,
but when scrubwomen, day laborers,
small home owners, wives and youths
speculate and lose, simply because they
can go to a broker’s office and get
credit for small sums, the practice
ceases to be defensible on any ground.”
"Out of the stress and difficulty of
the situation 1 believe gradually we
shall return to simpler thinking and
simpler living. For it seems to me
that we want above everything to
abandon the struggle to live up with
the Joneses, and to rediscover the true
purpose of life, which is the joy to he
found in the simple virtues of indus¬
try, thrift and sane living. I believe in
our people, in our country, and in the
God who directs our destinies; and I
welcome the future with confidence
and unshaken faith.”

Traylor Finds Too Much Silence
Responsible for Business Slump
Chicago Banker Traces
to Failure of Leaders to
Give Warnings

What, if anything, did they do to pre¬
vent such expansion with the conse¬
quences which they certainly did
know or should have known would
follow?
1 believe their record in that con¬
nection is not an enviable one. As
early as 1927, it was clearly obvious
to anyone having experience with the
granting of credit that if the situation
was allowed to continue, and if ex¬
pansion and speculation were carried
on unchecked, there could be but one
end—disaster. Yet the record of Amer¬
ican financial leadership and of re¬
sponsible government officials was
regrettably one of too much silence.
Sounded Few Warnings
Few warnings were issued, and few
attempts were made to atRact' public
attention to .the danger fjiajt threat¬
ened. ( Credit for the expansion of pro¬
ductive facilities to meet temporary
<?enDnd.s was granted to business
without adequate nonsideraijon of the
consequences. .Credit without stint
was furnished to consumers to buy
ftqnsamable goods, thereby further ih
kfeasing multiplying felsje purchasing power and
debt, No one culled 4 halt.
Every kind and character of com¬
bination and consolidation was made,
regardless of its economic advisability
or the possibility of economies in man¬
agement or increased profits there- j

fortunately, jt has

tion of finance and
government and
will likewise have

operation in adjust¬
ing its affairs to a
saner course. AVliafc,
in fact, did the
leaders of finance
do to encourage
the expansion
which took place jn
the last, decade?
ignorance of economic theories, but
because of our utter disregard and
defiance of all economic laws. Ambi¬
tion, stupidity, and greed have dictated
policies, and OroubJe has been the
result.''

“All through history ... the nations
that have been agriculturists and have
included in their agricultural and do¬
mestic pursuits the breeding and rais¬
ing ot livestock have been the nations
that have endured the longest and
performed the greatest work for man¬
kind.”

school and you close the door of a

“Reliof from owing too much money
does not lie in borrowing more.”

“Human welfare, 1 believe, means
more than the mere assurance to the
individual of political rights —life,
liberty and the pursuit of Happiness —
as enunciated in the Declaration of In¬
dependence; it means also the oppor¬
tunity to exercise these inalienable
rights.”
* * *
“Knowledge is one thing, hut courage
of leadership is another.”
* * *
“Falsehood and error make the
headlines, while truth and fact are
lost in the maze of half-point type."
* * *
“What does freckle-faced Johnny,
snub-nosed Bill or red-headed Jim care
about composition, translation or con¬
jugation? The only cube root life will
ever give them a chance to extract will
probably be that of a hickory or sassa¬
fras sprout; the only unknown quan¬
tity they will ever seek to find will he
the measure of the nubbins they can
produce on tiie worn-out fields their
fathers have robbed before them; the
only conjugation they will ever under¬
take will sound something like ‘Wo
Work,’ ‘You Work,’ ‘They Work’."

“We cannot trade the hungry, the
unfed, the feeble voice of the sick, the
empty basket of. the unemployed,
against the maintenance of party pref¬
erence or individual advantage or per¬
sonal achievement.”

or all suffer disaster.”
from. Little or no consideration was
given to the nature of the businesses
involved; iu one instance, for example,
soaps and candies were united. Such
combinations and mergers were pro¬
moted and securities were sold on the
theory that temporary earnings de¬
rived from a false demand would not
only continue, but would forever in¬
crease.
Furthermore, these securities were
not sold tQ those in a position to buy,
or who could buy for investment pur¬
poses, but rather to those less able to
buy—to men and women fascinated by
high-powered salesmanship and an in¬
born desire to gamble for big profits.
Was such financial leadership calcu¬
lated to inspire confidence or make
for an economic stability which in¬
sures social welfare? I am afraid not.
gut financial leadership did not stop
there. It actively promoted the pur¬
chase of equity stocks and split its
own unit of stock par in order, as it
■tid, to bring its market values within
t he reach of tiie small investor; May 1
add, parenthetically, that such action
would have heen unnecessary for
iheir purpose h a <I they waited only a
j~>w months.
Financial leaders organized and
promoted so-called investment trusts
• give the small investor a chance
io profit from wise financial ieader
; hip, made foreign loans of specula¬
tive value, and, altogether, followed
the procession obviously intent upon
getting theirs while the getting was
good.
Must Chart New Course
Are we to have a repetition ot this
kind of financial leadership? If it be
true—as I believe it is—that credit is
the life-blood of the nation, and that
there can be no economic stability or
; ocial progress without a sound finan¬
cial structure; and if it be true—as
I also believe—that no financial sys¬
tem is sounder or more useful than
Us management, then financial leader¬
ship 'itself ip this country must take stock
of turn over a new leaf, uni}
future''guidance. chart, a new poitrs? ’’ of (conduct for ' its 1
' '
If it be objected that not all finan¬
cial leaders are guilty of such mis¬
conduct—and certainly there are somq
theless, who are got—the' indictment, never¬
stands. As far as the record
(liscloses, pot one had the pourage to
nght cies he itt knew tbs fifiyu against thW'tppdeii;
were wrong and to de¬
mand a right-about-face. Knowledge
is one thing, but courage of leader
